Ingredients

BROWNIE LAYER
  • 1 carton black beans, drained
  • 50g Chocolate Peanut Butter Efectiv Whey
  • ½ cup cacao powder (can use cocoa powder)
  • ¼ cup xylitol
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 100g unsweetened apple purée
PEANUT BUTTER LAYER
  • ¼ cup peanut flour
  • 2 tbsp xylitol
  • 180g Lightest Philadelphia
YOGURT LAYER
  • 250g 0% Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp xylitol
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tbsp coconut flour
TOPPINGS
  • 15g Reese’s peanut butter chips
  • 10g dark chocolate chips
  • ChocShot drizzle (optional)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Add all of the brownie ingredients into a food processor and blend to form a smooth batter.
  2. Spray a 6" cake tin with 0kcal spray and pour the batter into the cake tin. Evenly spread the top so it’s flat and bake for 20–25 minutes until fully baked with a slight spring to it. Set aside to cool fully.
  3. Take a bowl and add all of the peanut butter layer ingredients and mix well until fully combined to form a smooth, creamy mixture. Take the brownie layer out of the tin and spread the mixture on top evenly.
  4. Take another bowl and add all of the yoghurt topping ingredients to form a thick, smooth yoghurt mixture. Spread evenly on top of the peanut butter layer.
  5. Sprinkle the Reese’s and dark chocolate chips and finish off with a drizzle of ChocShot or melted dark chocolate.
